RAILROADS ARE
DISCUSSED
IN THEIR
RELATION
PUBLIC.
TO THE
Absence of Harmony and Good Faith
Is Apparent. -
BY JULIUS KRUTTSCHNITT.
(In Railway Age-Gazette.)
' 'Anyone who studies the present
relations of the public and the rail
roads must conclude, however regret
fully, that the public still lacks con
fidence in the honest intentions ox tne
carriers, and that a lack of confidence
exists on the part of the carriers in
the fairness of the public. . This ab
sence of complete harmony and co
operation has behind it many years of
history, which it would hardly be
profitable now to review.
Suffice it to say that at the begin
ning the conception of a railway as
a public servant was little understood
by railway stockholders, directors and
other officers, and that the exagger
ation of the private personal point of
view at the expense of the public point
ox view led to many abuses, mis at
titude, while now , almost ..entirely
abandoned, still is occasionally evi
denced, particularly in recKiess finan
cial operations that jeopardize operat
ing efficiency and arouse hostile senti
ments in the minds of all classes of
the public 1 , '
Possibly because railroads are so
vital to their existence the people
have too freely generalized, from
conspicuous cases of inefficient and
dishonest management, and have man
ifested their condemnation in severely
restrictive statutes that have, while
restraining the guilty, the same time
hampem the innocent. The public
ijgm been as fair in discriminating
between good and bad irailroads as
between good and bad banks, for in
stance, which are also under federal
and state control. . In the case of
banks, which are under close regula
tion, the public satisfies its
sense of justice - by jailing the dis
honest, officers, not by a sweeping
statute restricting the natural and
reasonable activity of banks in gen-
eral. .'. . -,
The mass of ill-considered, conflict
ing and oppressive legislation which
hampers in so many instances that
activity on tine part of railway man
agement that is essential to good
service which wterfers with minute
details of railway management, under
the guise of regulation, and ait the
same time evades all responsibility for
results has arounsod distrust and
suspicion in the minds ,,. of railway
owners. : . .
- In such an ' infected , atmosphere
nothing of enduring value in the way
of regulation can be achieved. : Har
mony and co-operation between re
gulatora and regulated must be eS'
taiblished. It - should be plain to the
thinking public .that its interest in
good service which is the funda
mental consideration , demands .. an
attitude of compromise at least, but
better yet, of cordial co-operation in
achieving the (result desired.
It is a simple thing to (restore har
mony and confidence, if both parties
display a willing spirit. . The railways
appreciate the paramount neceeato of
public Bsclnng. Thbir . shareholders
and their officers and employees,
themselves constituting a large part
of the public, aire eager and ready to
meet their - fellows more than half
way. ' If, therefore investors in rail
road securities, shareholders, direc
tors, officers ' and employes labor
with the public, ' in season and
out of season, in a spirit of trust and
co-operation, they cannot fail to in
spire a reciprocal spirit, and out of
the new relations will be achieved
that degree of progress in railway
service that the public is rightly de
manding.
